Haven't you heard, the debate is over, we have the fossils!!! The dinos are over 65 million years old. Homo sapiens are only around 100,000 years old...

Adam is part of creationism, the dinosaurs are part of history/evolution, so Adam and the dinosaurs do not coexist in the same timeline. The dinosaurs lived millions of years ago, while according to Judaism, the Earth is less than 6000 years old, so Adam would have existed more recently.

There are more than one answer among christians to this question. * Some will say reffering to Genesis chapter 1 that Adam and Eve were created at the end of the creation and therefore after all the animals (which include the dinosaurs). * Others looking at Genesis chapter 2, starting at verse 4, will say that God created Adam, then planted the garden of Eden, and last by verse 19 God created the animals. However, this may just refer creation of the animals that shared the area of Eden with adam and not all the animals that God created before creating Adam & Eve at the sixth day of creation (Genesis 1). * Still other christians see a gap in time between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2.: *** Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." *** Genesis1:2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. The gap comes from the thought God did not created things in caotic state described as: formless, empty, and in darkness. Christians (some at least) think that a cataclism destroyed the creation that was made in Genesis 1:1 and the rest of the chapter presents God reorganizing / re-creating the world as we now know it. Dinosaurs would be part of that creation of Genesis 1:1 and were extinct before Genesis 1:2. what destroyed the first creation? Maybe they were casualties of the war to expell from heavens Satan and those fallen angels who decided to follow him.

The dinosaurs evolved first and were wiped out by a major asteroid strike (the K-2 event) several million years ago. Humans first started walking upright about 150,000 years ago.

Dinosaurs, way before humans. There was no such person as Adam, if you are referring to the Bible story . Humans as we know them today evolved about 150,000 years ago, but new discoveries about are ancestors continue to be made so this time estimate may be out of date already.

Adam, because the dinosaurs needed something to eat when they got here.
It all depends on if you believe in science or faith. Science would say dinosaurs came first. Faith (the bible) would argue humans.

According to Genesis, Man was made at the end of the week. Dinosaurs were probably made sometime late Tuesday afternoon, and died out by Thursday morning.

Just to correct loryntoo, its the K-T Event, Stands for Cretaceous Tertiary event. K is the classical abbreviation for Cretaceous.... not my call!

Adam was created first, then dinosaurs. there was no danger between them because all animals and dinosaurs were not meat eaters. there was no sin or violence or death until adam and eve sinned. then eventually some animals became carniverous after the curse of sin
